Thread: The most unusual car you've ever owned...

A Volkswagen 181 similar to this one, unhappily not a single picture left of it.

My first two sports cars, an MG tc and an Austin Healey 100s.
Nothing unusual about that except my TC was a 1947 model, every other TC owner I ever met claimed theirs was a 1948 !!

Very cool cars!!!

That is an Austin-Healey 100, not a 100S.

A 1933 L type MG. It had a 6 cylinder overhead cam engine driven by the vertically mounted dynamo at the front of the engine. Also had a central greasing system, mostly for the spring trunnions if I recall correctly. Man should be castrated for selling it--the stupidity of youth!

Also had a Bongo van for awhile in later years, and a civilian model Austin Champ.

Robert! if you have them now in your garage you have a fortune

Back in 1979 when overseas for a job I used to have an Austin A40 sport like the one in the photo.
In Australia, in 1970 I have 3 Triumph Herald, one registered, one for parts and the other on progress.
